Vamos Rafa❤️
Fils could not have a better person to look out for him. Nadal is beyond gifted and he has integrity and is kind. I smiled while I was reading the article, many reasons why Nadal is my favorite sport figure and has been for a long time.
I’m hoping that he will not falter or have great difficulty when he returns to the court and that it will all be in his favor!
Some fans said Fils broke rackets yesterday. Didn’t watch his match. Hope Rafa teaches him how to control his anger on court.
I actually like Fils. Seen him play one full match plus random highlights on the tour. I was very unfortunate that I couldn’t obtain the Next Gen finals. When it comes to the one full match, I don’t even recall the opponent, the year, the tournament or the round. Plus he lost. Just something about him though. A spark!
Think he’ll go places. Especially when you take in to consideration the fact that Rafa is in his corner. What better encouragement could a young man have than Rafa cheering him on.
If it was Boris Becker, I’d tank the match, just to piss off the fucker. My dislike of Becker spreads far and wide. Rune, don’t trust him, he’ll rob you blind, move to a tropical island and arrange for the Yacht he “borrowed” to be mysteriously blown up. God, he is the definition of a scum bag.
Sorry for the slight angle that went in.
Wow, you really said your piece, not a fan of Becker myself because as of late he had really spoken stupidly.
